Bala's Bull Ride (Funny though)

Hwdy!

Last weekend, I had been with friends to a place called Stockyard at Fortworth Texas. Once upon a time (I guess it was in early 1920's), this place was ranked first in Mule and Horse trading market. This place reflects the true essence of Wild-west, the cowboy's lifestyle.

I was nice to witness the 19th century western lifestyle (esp cowboys)... people dressed as cowboys, the gun shooting road show, a ride on the 1896 Steam Engine train, Cowboys Hall of fame museum, the taste of Buffalo wings, the BIG TEXAS BOSS BURGER (yummy, yummy...),the human maze and lastly my favourite: a ride on the mechanical bull. For the record, I managed to cling on to this bull for about 41 secs :) here is the video...



I could have held on to the bull for somemore time, if I had not had the groin pain, the calf muscle cramp or the burise in the ankle :):) :)

Unfortunately we missed the real Rodeo, the west-wild show,the night pubs: the real essence of cowboys life.

We are planning to visit this place again. May be this time we'll be spending the entire night enjoying this amizing atmosphere.
